A New Chapter for MagicMirror: The Community Takes the Lead

Thank you so much! I enjoy my MagicMirror each and every day 🥰.

@MichMich Thanks so much for this project. I was looking for a perpetual electronic calendar… probably 5+ years ago. I can across your personal MM2 and hobby page, bookmarked it, and just about forgot about it.
Then during COVID I came across the bookmark and decided to do it as a project. It’s been very rewarding to learn about some of the stuff that is possible with this platform. I even took a series of Javascript, CSS, and HTML classes on Coursera and Udemy.

Also from my side a thousand times thanks for your work and dedication to the project. I promise to not break too much stuff :-)

Thank you Michael for all your hard work and creativity
i enjoy your magic mirror I actually have it running every day -
Michael,
I truly appreciate the work you’ve done, thank you.
Looking back at my archives, the first modification I made to your original code was on March 28th of 2015 (that version still had the code that talked to your washing machine)! How has it been that long?!?!
That first mirror, that is still proudly in our home, is a 40" TV behind mirror glass and we just replaced the TV a couple of months ago, although can’t complain because it was turned on 24 hours a day for 10 years!
I’m still using that original code and still make tweaks now and again. but have sent a lot of people to this “new” version so they can build their own.
Once again, thank you!!

Michael, you have done an amazing job and I cant thank you enough for the joy MagicMirror has brought me.
I deeply appreciate all you have done and wish you the best!

Thanks for your inspiration over the years! I’ve always enjoyed following the progress on the project, and the random tweet about Dutch Television shows.
You inspired me to start creating Teletron, I even included a Magic Mirror Module compatibility layer.
Wish you all the best on your own paths, and may they be filled with innovation, collaboration, and success.

even though I’ve only been exposed to your project in the last year I thank you for all you’ve done. IF I’ve spent hours/days/weeks on my mirror I can only imagine what you’ve gone through. Again, thank you.
I always want to give a special acknowledgement to @MMRIZE & @sdetweil (and the others)
for their assistance and contributions to the community and myself. -

Thank you Michael for all of the work you have put into this project over the years. I came across it courtesy of the MagPi article (which I’m sure is how many people first encountered the project). Since first reading about it, I’ve built more mirrors than I care to remember, both for personal use, and for friends/family as well.
As an aside, it also introduced me to Git, which has resulted in me finally learning to code (more than 3 decades after I skipped all those classes at University :)
Enjoy whatever your future holds, and thank you once again.

Hello everyone!! Super excited about this open-source community! My Parents M-82, and F-79… They are having a hard time keeping their paper calendar organized, Dementia is kicking in… They are forgetting to update their calendar and even forgetting to write down doctor visits I made for them, I was considering DAKboard but, when I came across MagicMirror, I told my 15 y/o son (Who understands coding and Raspberry pi) let’s make them a mirror-calendar-interactive-syncable with everyone’s calendar-touchscreen, and a section for photos sent from us 2 hours away. And I can update their calendar from home. I’m super excited for my son and me on this project. We want to have a touch screen. Calendar interaction. weekly to-do’s and a random photo display. Any help is appreciated… Skills. I love woodworking, I’m computer savvy, and I like to build stuff. My Son is handy with computer repairs - I taught him, soldering, and thank god coding. Both he and I are self-taught through YouTube!!! LOL. Looking to build something in the 24 -27".
